Located off of Congo Road just outside of Benton, sits this spacious home in a convenient location. The 2113 Square Foot home has been recently renovated and is ready for its new owner! The home is three bed two bath, with one of the bathrooms being brand new. The large kitchen gives way to a corner dining area, and flows into the Living room. The living space is large enough for a crowd and has plenty of room for entertaining family and friends. Outside the home you will notice great craftsmanship in the masonry work, and inside the home on the rock fireplace as well. The home also has an unfished basement, and a bonus room that would make a great office. The approximate nine-tenths of an acre is dotted with several mature oak trees, making the property nice to enjoy year-round. A block outbuilding is in need of repair, but has potential to be a great shop. Being just minutes away from Benton and interstate 30, this is in a great location. Whether you are looking for your forever home, or a great investment property, don’t overlooking this great home in an even better location.
